If I understand correctly, I think you're using (perhaps slightly
abusing) the vma_lock to extend the serialization of the vma_list
manipulation to include io_remap_pfn_range() such that you can test
whether the pte has already been populated using follow_pfn(). In that
case we return VM_FAULT_NOPAGE without trying to repopulate the page
and therefore avoid the BUG_ON in remap_pte_range() triggered by trying
to overwrite an existing pte, and less importantly, a duplicate vma in
our list. I wonder if use of follow_pfn() is still strongly
discouraged for this use case.
I'm surprised that it's left to the fault handler to provide this
serialization, is this because we're filling the entire vma rather than
only the faulting page?
As we move to unmap_mapping_range()[1] we remove all of the complexity
of managing a list of vmas to zap based on whether device memory is
enabled, including the vma_lock. Are we going to need to replace that
with another lock here, or is there a better approach to handling
concurrency of this fault handler? Jason/Peter? Thanks,
Alex
